there is nothing on my facebook page that i dont want people on my friends list to know about.Strangers can not view my posts except posts i make on a comunity wall such as hyndburn chat or moorhead high school

there is no address

there is no telephone number and my details apart from my name are false

i most certainly do not bare my soul on facebook unless typing that i am grabbing a beer is deemed as doing so but occasionally i do have a rant and post jokes and pictures i couldnt possibly be allowed to do here.

facebook is a choice and you get to choose what you type on it for others to see.Government want to read everything you type which is a completely different matter

if teh world and his wife can see what your typing perhaps you should alter a few settings but i can assure you people only see what i want them to see

Our right to privacy is of course a democratic principle, then the lunatics who would take over the asylum post all but and maybe even their bowel movements on FB for all to see.

I trust Mr Hague to protect that right and the balance between surveillance of suspected terrorist activity that is necessary and our basic freedoms.

Thought you'd appreciate that accyman I can't really think that GCHQ will have the slightest interest in our email accounts, that is unless we suddenly change our names to Ali and Mustaffa, then they might get a bit suspicious

[GEaston]

Your emails are read by computer algorithms searching for patterns. If you shout Ali Akbar 5 times in an email I recon you flag to be read, and so they should. Most people's inane ramblings, including those on forums like this will never be seen.

I for one am happy that this monitoring takes place. I commit no crimes, and plan no crimes and therefore have no concerns about what a GCHQ computer makes of my emails/texts.

What is and is not a crime can change according to the whims of the government of the day.

As control tightens on all aspects of our lives, and now includes what you say and think (eg.racism), what makes you think that the control may stop there?

There could come a day when what you wear and how you smell could be regarded as offensive and a 'crime' - sounds extreme doesn't it?, but possible.

In one country, and in my lifetime, it was an offence for persons of one particular religious faith not to wear a visible symbol to indicate that fact.

You may well approve of some behaviour being categorised as 'crime' - such as the rules on wearing seat belts, not phoning whilst driving, not smoking in public places, not disturbing neighbours, but in their drive to increase revenue in fines, who knows what will be a crime next.

I'll tell you what if GCHQ had to snoop on every Tom Dick or Abdul's emails they be recruiting a hell of a lot more people and using a lot bigger buildings to house um all, like I've always maintain if anybody wants to take a peck into my emails I'll copy um

They don't need people to snoop - they use 'trigger words' to indicate who needs 'watching'.

From a Washington website:

Classified National Security Agency programs prevented dozens of terrorist plots, the man in charge of the agency told a Senate panel Wednesday.

National Security Agency (NSA) chief Keith Alexander Alexander said there were “dozens of terrorist events that these [programs] have helped prevent,” referring to the recently disclosed domestic surveillance programs run by the agency.

One program, code-named PRISM, that pulls data from tech companies on foreign Internet users helped to disrupt Najibullah Zazi's plot to bomb New York's subways in 2009.

The second program, allowing the NSA to sweep all cellphones on the Verizon network, played a key role in the federal manhunt for Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who were responsible for the Boston Marathon bombings.

Have you ever considered that what you have reported could be propaganda to justify surveillance.

Government agencies are (and likely have been) capable of arranging 'terror' incidents when it suits their agenda.
